Margaret contacted us in May as she was trying to remember which video she needed for one of Valerie’s stack and slash quilts, as she had made one a few years ago and wanted to make another.

It turned out she wanted to make Valerie’s crazy patchwork quilt – which you can watch here.

Margaret has got back in touch just a few weeks later and has just completed her quilt in this lovely colourway, which she has hand quilted using perle thread. She used 6 fabrics instead of 5 (as Valerie had done in her video). She made 24 blocks for this quilt and added the sashing as well.

She is very happy with it but has a tip – some of the fabric she used was cotton poplin and that didn’t work so well here for her, so she now knows not to buy it in future.
